Guys by the name of Jordan and Drexler (in their earlier days) maid a pretty
good game by slashing without taking too many 3's at the two spot.  As long
as you have a 3 with range to back them up this is fine.

I think Ron will be able to put an all star type game together without the 3
point shot.  He does need to get more consistent from that mid range though,
but this will come.  If everything I hear about Pierce'[s touch is true,
this will help.

COleman is a PUNK.  I saw that hit on Steve Kerr just after Kerr had stroled
a 3 in his face and it was one of the more butcher like efforts I have ever
seen on a basketball court.  He is a CANCER.  I NEVER want to see him in green.
